Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Equity & Inclusion Statement

Century College is a campus that welcomes all students and is committed to their success. As students, employees, and the community, we pledge to work towards social action and dismantling structural racism. Regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, immigrant status or disability, we celebrate, support, and embrace learners of diverse communities.

 

Century College is a campus that is intentional about fostering an environment that is safe and welcoming to all. Whether you are a student, family or friend of a student, employee or just visiting us, we want to make sure that we are serving you in an equitable fashion.

Not only are we vocal about our stance on equity and diversity at Century College, we believe in being action-oriented as well. Our Equity and Diversity Plan focuses on five key areas that will allow us, as a college, to purposefully serve, support and embrace our ever growing diverse campus community:

  • Access/Equity/Diversity
  • Employee Diversity
  • Community Engagement & Inclusion
  • Supportive Campus Climate
  • Community Engagement

Real Conversations About Race Series

During these virtual panel discussions, participants will hear from staff, faculty, system administrators, students and alumni about their lived experiences and how systemic racial inequalities may have impacted their lives and their experiences here at Century College. The learning from this dialogue will add to our knowledge base and give thoughtful introspection to awaken our curiosity to learn more, while defining what it means to be socially conscious.

Our panelists will provide insights on topics such as:

  • How to engage in courageous conversations
  • How to create an inclusive campus that will foster academic and student success
  • How to be an advocate and create a welcoming space for students of color

Century College is committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion. Please join in this critical and ongoing conversation here.
